Auckland Testing Summary 18 May 2013
Who: John, Oliver, Tabitha, Tom

Testing One Education OS 1.2 (build au889) on XO-1.75 and XO-system 1a for XO-4 (build 32) on XO-4.

One Education OS 1.2 (build au889) on XO-1.75:
Sound doesn’t work due to OLPC #12637 downgrading the firmware to Q4D24 fixes it.

Browse is really old and slow! Many websites work badly!

Measure works

Maze works with 2 way collaboration on adhoc wifi

Paint works, can easily change fonts when writing
basic test works - labyrinth, implode, maze, memorize, moon, ruler, tamtam mini, numbers, speak, record, clock, stopwatch

XO-system 1a for XO-4 (build 32):
no get books??
Somehow the top hit in aslo for get books waas get internet archive books (version 6) but install fails with error:
sugar3.bundle.bundle.MalformedBundleException: Activity bundle /home/olpc/.sugar/default/data/d84ff538-7200-47b1-92fd-2e4962f73e50_dQxXr5.xo does not specify a bundle id
Regular get books installs and works well

read works

color chooser in write is laggy, but otherwise write works

tamtam mini 67 got caught in an inifnite loop, see https://sugardextrose.org/issues/3880 this was not repeatable

paint- can’t choose font when using text boxes with trackpad or touchscreen maybe due to wear the menu drops down, bold and italic works

works - moon, maze, implode, memorize, clock, stopwatch, physics, write
nice improvements in speak for visual tool identification
nice improvements in record for visual tool identification

ran software updates - fraction bounce and level activities work

write full test works
record works
browse basic test works

Our XO-1.75s had Q4D27 and Q4D28.

> What firmware version is in au889?

How do you tell? I did searched the running laptop's filesystem for a
.rom file with the goal of installing that version but didn't find one,
so used Q4D24 as recommended on #12637

Thanks. This problem was fixed in Q4D29. Please try with Q4D29?

#12637 didn't recommend that, but it did say that the last known
working version was Q4D24.

If au889 contains anything after Q4D24 then it will automatically
reflash next time it has a power cord attached. I don't know enough
about au889.

The file should be bootfw2.zip in the /boot directory, and it contains
two files, the data.img file will have an md5sum matching one of
these:

1f61697d66aef3f29bbc0dd69a2dd4c7 q4d24.rom
0effc8d732e847b1245da3cb0da1ec5e q4d25.rom
09baa37cb297cacff565f1a4a0a298b2 q4d26.rom
0d518ab0f9dd63cd64035202674f5be7 q4d27.rom
da7189125f1e37f56d6e36f0dbc05aa7 q4d28.rom
7e443310a1d8c92b1a683fc8113fd900 q4d29.rom

The file is provided by an RPM package, so you may find the version
also confirmed by:

sudo rpm -q olpc-firmware

The download directory for au889 might also have a packages file that
lists an olpc-firmware package version.

Sound doesn't work with Q4D29. This image has kernel
3.0.19_xo1.75-20120714.1244.olpc.91e4ce2

It has olpc-firmware-q4d15-1.unsigned.noarch

Wow. Okay. Ten months ago.

Yes, it would probably predate that.

I suggest not using that build with firmware after Q4D24, because our
fix in Q4D29 probably has a kernel dependency.

This is apparently the build that One Education want to use in New
Zealand this year.

This build has Browse 192.3 which is based on firefox.

That is for XO-4 touch? You will be missing the touch scrolling. If
you are shipping Sugar 0.98, then Browse 149.3 is the latest and
contains important improvements.

This is for the XO-1.75.

How is Browse 192.3 "newer" than Brows 149.3?
